Good advise. I just found out that our AWAS at times has info that can be hours old. I also need to listen to the time stamp, which I took for granted.

Talk to your airport manager and see if they would install small windsocks near the ends of the runway for a last second visual before crossing the numbers. Push them as a safety issue. Checking the windsock on downwind is a good habit to practice. No windsock, check flags on or near the airport or columns of smoke near the airport. Flying a taildragger makes you a bit more conscious of wind direction.
